A temper tantrum by a former union committee member vs. a racial slur by a committee member, morally equivalent in your world? Really?
I guess if it doesn't offend you it's ok. Sweep it under the rug, don't question the vetting process for committee appointments, pretend it doesn't exist, minimize it, whatever it takes, but certainly don't confront it, hold him or the organization he represents accountable or even publicly rebuke him. IOW, be a complicit apologist for the indefensible and attack those who shine a light on racist comments. Glad to see what type of folks DPA has as supporters.
